     William Archer "Arch" Poff was buried at Sherwood Burial Park, 1045 Lynchburg Turnpike, Salem, Roanoke Co., Virginia.4,5,6 He was born on September 5, 1896 at Floyd Co., Virginia.4,9,5,6 He married Lula Sonya Poff, daughter of Joseph Fleming Poff and Rhoda Lee Hall, on March 10, 1918 at Floyd Co., Virginia.2,6 William Archer "Arch" Poff died on April 27, 1957 at Roanoke, Virginia, at age 60.4,5,6,7 He A Roanoker collapsed and died in the vestibule of the Ninth Street Church of the Brethren last night just a couple of minutes before he was to walk down the aisle to give his daughter in marriage. William Arch Poff, 60, of 1319 Buena Vista Ave., SE, apparently died of a heart attack, said Dr. Charles M. Irvin, city medical examiner. The ceremony went on, but it was abbreviated by the officiating minister, The Rev. H. Lawrence Rice, and none in the wedding party or in the church knew until the wedding was over that Mr. Poff was dead. William Poff, a brother of the bride, stepped into the role his father was slated to play, and gave his sister, Normaline, in marriage to Melvin G. Wiseman. The minister said Mr. Poff had just entered the vestibule on the Montrose avenue side of the church and was standing beside J. C. Reed, a member of the board of deacons, when he was stricken. Reed stooped to assist the dying man and at that monent Mr. Rice stepped up. He was making a last minute check to see that everything was set for the ceremony to start. The minister said he was unable to detect a pulse and telephoned for the Roanoke Life Saving and First Aid Crew. The son stepped into the unexpected void in the proceedings. It was not until some time after the ceremony that the news was broken to the bride. An ambulance was summoned by the rescue squad moments after members had reached the church and Mr. Poff was pronounced dead on arrival at Lewis-Gale Hospital. Mr. Rice said the victim had a history of a heart condition and had been taking medicine prescribed by his physician. Only two or three minutes before entering the church, Mr. Poff had taken one of the tablets and Mr. Rice said he told an acquaintance as he entered the church that he "felt fine." Mr. Rice said that Mr. Poff was to have passed from the Montroee avenue vestibule to the Ninth street vestibule where he would have started his walk to the altar. Mr. Poff had been employed for 35 years in the engineering department at the American Viscose plant. Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Lula P. Poff, four daughters, and one son: Mrs. J. M. Dooley, Mrs. C. D. Parker, Mrs. S. E. Chewning and Mrs. Melvin Wiseman and W. A. Poff, Roanoke; four sisters and four brothers; Mrs. W. M. Wilson, Miss Cammie Poff and Mrs. Lewis Parsell, Roanoke; Mrs. Paul King, Salem; D. F. Poff, Roanoke; W. W. Poff, Fincastle; Roscoe Poff, Elliston; Charlie Poff, Vinton; and seven grandchildren. on April 28, 1957.7
